[ecrea] new volumes published in the Palgrave/IAMCR series

Tue Dec 05 19:19:44 GMT 2017






two new inspiring edited volumes have just come out in the Palgrave/IAMCR series *Global Transformations in Media and Communication Research*.

Sergio Sparviero, Corinna Peil and Gabriele Balbi are editors of /Media Convergence and Deconvergence./ Media convergence is commonly considered to be an overarching process and one of the major implications of the digitisation of communication signals – a key issue in the world of digital media. This book, however, critically analyses  'convergence' and draws attention to the inconsistencies in media convergence discourses.  The work explores the perspective of complementary divergence and emphasises the interplay of converging and diverging movements on selected fields of research.

Francisco Sierra's and Tomaso Gravante's publication focuses on /Networks, Movements and Technopolitics in Latin America. /This work explores the impact of digital culture on politics, political participation and social movements, building on a theoretical framework inspired by the critical tradition of participatory communication for social change as it was developed in Latin America. The volume presents compelling research about contemporary Latin American movements in several countries; experiences that are creating other identities and social spaces on the margins of the neoliberal system through the use of digital technology.
